Of the dispatch sent to Rome and of that they
did not understand from the dispatch that mad no

and vigor. but shows evidence of close confinement
"wbat abont your Southern trip" he was asked ,
Saturday" he answered. having just received very
warm and pressing invitation from friend there But
shall not stay more than a week, think The 6amy

Saving this he retired 10 his room. The st. stephens
people however. In bury % retire bnt contln
ued to talk about the good they termed IT, until
late hour One of the leading members of the commit
tee said in discussing the matter:
"You'n DR.. McGlynn back in ST. sephens inside OF
month The politicians at Rome have done their worst
Eut Cardinal Gibbons will give the true explanation OF
whole affair and when he does the Doctor VIII surely
be sent back"
ayes and when he does" broke in another member
"you'll see Archbishop Corrgan 60; this diocese Will
never again be large enough for him and the Doctor
should not be surprised 10 see the Archbishop
sent TO Baltimore and Cardinal Gibbons brought
here The Cardinal has certainly attained an enyiale
popularity and he is Just the kind of man that Is needed
In this cosmopolitan city He is right up 10 the times and
with the prestige that he has already gained could
probably do concate the laboring men than any
other man Archbishop Corrgan may be good theology
an he is not progressive enough for this century
This opinion echoed by many prominent Catholics
who were spoken with the subject Meanwhile Arch
bishop Corrgan continues his evangelical work In the
Bahama Islands, quietly awaiting the issue OF events at
the Eternal City.
The meeting Of the rarshoners at the Interna-
tiona Assembly Rooms tonight Will be addressed by
John J. Bealn and other speakers.
